Consistent globe key with the default keyboard
I found two inconsistencies with the globe key on iPad which break my muscle memory.
On my iPad mini's default keyboard, the globe key is on the very left, while on Typefinity, the leftmost key is the option key. Is it possible to have an option to swap option and globe keys?
Next, there is a second inconsistency: with the standard keyboard, dragging on the globe key opens up a list of all the keyboard layouts, but with Typefinity, it opens the Typefinity settings. It would be great if it was possible to change this behavior to match with the default keyboard.

Apple has switched the position of the Globe and Option keys several times in successive iOS versions and can't really seem to make up their minds. Typefinity as other third party keyboards is sticking with the leftmost key being "switch to alternate layout" (option in our case, 123?-ABC in others). That key is used more often than switching keyboards so is in a place where it's easier to hit, leaving the Globe where it's less easy to hit accidentally.
As far as the popups, we would like to be able to display the list of keyboards, however it's more important to have a place for accessing Settings, Help, language swap, etc.. Using the option key for an additional popup would be possible but would be an even more serious deviation from expected user experience to the point that Apple may not allow it in App Store review.
